Preventive diplomacy and the role of the High Commissioner on National Minorities
The office of High Commissioner on National Minorities was established on the strength of the Helsinki Decisions on July 1992 by the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) as an instrument of conflict prevention at the earliest possible stage. The High Commissioner on National Minorities is responsible with the preventive diplomacy while his activity is justified by the need to prevent the aggravation of ethnic conflicts based on the belief that timely and effective action can help to avert a costly crisis. The High Commissioner on National Minorities approaches the concerns regarding the protection of the national minority rights as an independent objective agent who acts in the spirit of cooperation. The establishment of the High Commissioner on National Minorities (HCNM) was an important new step in multilateral efforts to develop or improve security. Integrating diversity is a fundamental aspect of both conflict prevention and civil society.
